Super Debate Championship
Where crypto builders and master debaters converge for 3 days of intellectual combat in Caribbean paradise
Infinita’s first Super Debate Championship is the flagship debate competition of the Infinite Games Festival, gathering debaters, thinkers, and builders from around the world to engage in rigorous, structured contests of reason and persuasion.
Hosted in Prospera, a charter city pioneering new models of governance and community, this tournament demonstrates that argument, when structured and disciplined, remains one of civilization's highest art forms.
Two Communities, One Arena: The first championship designed for both crypto natives and competitive debaters.
